Anastasia is my youngest daughters name.

And the middle name of my good lady (not one and the same I would hasten to add, at least I think not)

Had a customer called Richard Head - Our receptionist got the old tin-tack after putting him through saying; "It's that Dick Head for you". She didn't realise that Richard Head could hear her!

I've been trying to persuade my sister that she should call my future niece/nephew Robyn/Robin, as it'll go very well with her surname (which I'll let you guess at!!).

There is a Junior Seagull with Zamora as a middle name, I know this as their birthday is in January, the same as my daughters, so I spotted it while looking through the birthday list in the programme

Who was that I wonder?

My apologies, but it was within the context of the other names being obviously their parents "favourite things"

.. holds head in shame.

I used to work with a guy with the last name of Holder. First name Richard. He was known as Dick by everyone .... Dick Holder! His parents should be shot.

And there were two guys called John Thomas in the same company. One was always known by his middle name, Selwyn. The other's full name was John Prothero Thomas and always known as JPT. What parents with a last name Thomas would call their poor kid John??

Thanks.

My niece is Kathryn. We have Callum, Francesca and Anastasia. Though Anastasia is the only one who is called by her given name, Callum goes by Cal and Francesca by Chase.

When I worked on the deli counter at Co-op in Blatchington Road, I worked with a bloke called Simon Knellor.

(think about it for a little bit - I assure you, its worth it).
